Investigation of correlation of design parameters in wireless power transfer system

Abstract

Abstract Achieving higher power transfer efficiency with permissible output load power is a formidable challenge in designing a magnetically coupled resonant wireless power transfer system. Consequently, to instigate the power transfer characteristics, the theoretical models based on reflected load theory as well as lumped circuit models have been employed, which have been substantiated with the experimental measurements. It has been apprehended that maximum efficiency as well as the power delivered to the load can be enriched from the depreciated value through appropriate deliberation of coil's quality factor (coil design dependent) and coupling coefficient with acceptable operating frequency under different electric load conditions. The obtained results illuminate the correlation between the maximum power transfer ability and the quality factor of the coils, as well as the coupling coefficient, under different electric load conditions.
